match between the Hurricanes and the Highlanders from Westpac Stadium.This
should be one of the matches of the round this week - both teams are

back to full strength with Ben and Aaron Smith returning for the
Landers.Pre-match banter: Jordie Barrett returns to Hurricanes for Highlanders clashThe Hurricanes have made a pair of changes to their starting side to take on the

Highlanders in Wellington on Friday.After
missing last week's win over the Brumbies, Jordie Barrett comes back
into the run-on team in the less familiar number 14 jersey.Barrett

started the Hurricanes' opening two games at fullback, before being
rested in accordance with All Blacks policy during the 43-13 win over
the Brumbies in Palmerston North on Friday.Jeff To'omaga-Allen slots back in as first-choice starting tighthead prop, rotating in for Ben May, who shifts to the bench.Coach

John Plumtree said he was eager to give the impressive Chase Tiatia
another go in the custodian role, while also affording Barrett a chance
to work on his versatility."There were obviously some tough
calls when it came to selecting the side," Plumtree said. "But we were

really impressed with the way Chase handled his debut and he has been
rewarded for that."Barrett's 1.96m frame also brings some
additional height to the Hurricanes' outside backs, which Plumtree

believes could be key in defusing the Highlanders' favoured kick and
chase tactics.Looking to rebound after a gut-wrenching loss to
the Melbourne Rebels last weekend, the southerners will be galvanised by

the return of All Blacks duo Ben Smith and Aaron Smith."The
Highlanders are going to be a massive challenge for us, like all New
Zealand derbies are, but we are very keen on maintaining our proud
record at Westpac Stadium in front of our home fans."TAB Odds: Hurricanes $1.28
